Upon his couch at night
Takes no thought;
When GENES along December,
And the warmth no longer fingers,
Foriack Of IRE he blows his fingers.
And says, SC.

| And procures her parures
With her amours;
Thus the more that she doth shine.
The more the finger points.

And says &C.
When the govt comes on at last.
And he to sit up is no longer able.
